Heat transmission and air flow friction in a solar air heater with a ribbed absorber plate: A computational study

The influence of geometrical parameters of V-symmetry ribs on heat flow and fluid flow characteristics of solar air heater (SAH) rectangular duct with ribbed absorber is investigated theoretically. Fabrication of ribs in repeated artificial protrusions pattern on the absorber surface appears as a si...
